GLSP server crashes on on MacOS for the node-json-vscode configuration

[rhumbertgz]

I running the node-json-vscode template project and the GLSP server crashes just after initiatate. If I run the project on a linux container it works but then launching the extension takes a while because it has to open inside a container. I have seen other people are also had a similar error on Windows, but there no solution has been found.

Node: 18.16.0
Yarn: 1.22.19
VSCode: 1.81.1
Laptop: Apple M1 Max
MacOS: 13.5.1 (22G90)

Looks like this is related to #1090. We indeed weren't able to reproduce this issue, so it has to be further investigated to identify the root cause.
It may be interesting to see if this only happens in the VS Code integration or also with the Eclipse Theia integration template.

hi, I will try the theia template, but so far it didn't start well. The yarn install cmd fails on the client.

$ yarn install
yarn install v1.22.19

I'm not quite sure as I'm not too familiar with MacOS, but could it be that Python 3 is missing (see also https://github.com/eclipse-theia/theia/blob/master/doc/Developing.md#prerequisites and https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#on-macos)?

I have python 3 on my machine, the issue is node-gyp, it doesn't support arm architecture :(. Thanks for your help
